Fixture 2023 Fixture

[shewho]

When the fixture comes out I like to rank its degree of difficulty. This year we start very mid table. My tiers of difficulty are:

Top Tier: Brisbane, Geelong, Melbourne, Richmond= -1 (H); -2 (A)
2nd Tier: W.Bulldogs, Sydney, Collingwood, Fremantle = 0 (H); -1 (A)

Mid Tier: Port Carlton = +1 (H); -1 (A)

4th Tier: St.Kilda, GC, Essendon, Adelaide= +1 (H); 0 (A)
5th Tier: GWS, Hawthorn, WCE, North= +2 (H); +1 (A)

Any score in the positive is an easy draw- the higher the easier. Any score in the negative is a difficult draw. The lower, the harder.

I checked my tiers against Betfair. They have Sydney not Brisbane in the top tier; Port and Carlton not Bulldogs and Fremantle in the second tier. Otherwise the tiers are the same. I prefer my tiers.

I'd rather have a 'tough' draw. If we're not good enough to beat anyone anywhere, we're not contending. I don't want to be sucked into the false hope that a soft draw can give

We aren't winning the flag, so I'd rather a tough draw to stop Koch rushing for an early extension for Hinkley, off beating 4 or 5 shitty teams in the first 6 games.

 

[Marmozet]

We used to beat Hawthorn by that until Clarko arrived!

Clarko was coaching them in 2005, when we beat them by 117 points which is our biggest ever winning margin in the AFL.

 

[Marmozet]

I’m now hearing that the AFL are just waiting for Australia to be eliminated from the World Cup before dropping any fixture news.

Not the soft start they would've hoped for

 

[Schulzenfest]

We'll terrorise Lachie I reckon.

 

[jdeezy]

Lol every single Victorian team gets to play in Victoria in round 1, of course.

 

[PatientMental]

Afl gotta uphold its old vfl fixture for r1

 

[Jonts]

Port V an interstate club round 1 seems a lock every year

Need to feed those "huuuge" vic match ups before they turn into dead rubbers

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

Corrupt AFL with all Victorian teams playing at home. As bad as FIFA.

 

[Marmozet]

So we finally get Round 1 at home! Too bad it’s against our biggest bogey side

 

[Ralph Lorenz]

Corrupt AFL with all Victorian teams playing at home. As bad as FIFA.

Reality is that Melbourne is the home of AFL. A carnival round 1 in Vic is an obvious one if possible to do so. The atmosphere is big and it's great for the spectacle of the game.

 

[growly]

I live in adel and go to Port games regularly looking foward to this one will be a good test for both sides hearing your round 2 and 3 games might be west coast away in round 2 then home showdown round 3. If that's the case all 3 are winnable good luck.

Not by a long shot. FIFA results in deaths of thousands lets not make that comparison

 

[Jonts]

Also what happened to that guy that was telling us that Adelaides #1 ask is round 1 at home lel

 

[AdamMarrett]

I’m now hearing that the AFL are just waiting for Australia to be eliminated from the World Cup before dropping any fixture news.

They released the round 1 fixture before kick off in one of the most pathetic, self entitled moves by a insecure sporting organisation of all time. They embarrassed themselves and are laughable with how piss poor that was and they are. Joke of a organisation.

Clurey aint getting a look in unless McKenzie has lost a limb.

Hinkley froths over Trent

You might want to do some research on FIFA.

 

[Del165198]

Not the soft start they would've hoped for

On the plus side perfect start to generate some momentum for the sack Hinkley campaign

 

[Schulzenfest]

Yeah, imagine if we lost, say, our first 5 games or something ridiculous like that. And two of them were at Adelaide Oval against bottom 4 sides. They'd have to sack him then!

Or deep throat him every day because he didn't coach them to 0-22.
